The journey begins...

Apr 20, 2014

I cannot believe how much has happened in a few weeks. I have completed my consultation with the surgery program at Ali'i Health (Dr. Tomita), I have selected RNY as my procedure, I have had a consult for my EGD (scheduled for next Thursday 4/24) and am going for my psych assessment tomorrow. I have an appointment with the weight management program (April McGeorge) May 13, where I will also get my consult referrals for Cardio and Sleep Study. I have been researching coverages on both my blues plans and amazingly they both cover the surgery. Hopefully this will make the process go quicker and get the authorization approvals. I cannot wait to start this journey. I hit a high weight of 313.9, but since my consult with the surgery program last Monday, I have made it down to 307.3!! Tracking my food on MyFitnessPal (aiming for 1200 - 1300 calories a day) and wearing my FitBit for tracking exercise. Even though today is Easter, I  am heading to an orientation meeting at FitXpress (women's only gym here in Kona) - nothing like resurrection / new birth day to start a gym program! Nothing is getting in my way to being healthier and happier. Mission: Hot By Winter :)
